Americans celebrated Vatican 2 and the use of the local language..
FWIW my Catholic acquaintances in those days (I came into full communion in 1994) were not unanimously in favor; I know a number of Catholics who will drive a long way to a Latin Mass; and my kid thinks Latin Masses are neat.

There are many people who become Catholic because they like the drama of the mass.. for many people the Latin was a part of that.
A lot of people would prefer to feel holy than be holy Dawg..:)
